Wrangle Between Ecclesiastics and lay
men.
LONDON, March 10th-A rather interest
ing wrangle is proceeding in the papers
between high ecclesiastical dignitaries
about the so-called Church House" the
building of which the Bishop of Londen

clergyman's club. Bishop Temple defends
himself with the odd argument that the
building will be of value to all Bishops.
Lay opponents pronounce the scheme al
ready failure. The subscriptions, in spite
of unfair pressure, are small in number
and amount, though 81 600 COO are wanted.
